Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 2, 2021 Journalists Share Posted April 2, 2021 AMERICAN BOUND (f, 2, American Freedom–Grace Abounds, by Stormy Atlantic) provided a further push for her first-crop sire (by Pulpit), becoming the Airdrie inmate's first winner Friday at Keeneland. The victory came just two days after another daughter of American Freedom sold for $550,000 at Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream to go with three six-figure sellers at OBS March. Let go at 12-1 while breaking from the rail, American Bound broke on top and edged away around the turn with Wesley Ward-trained favorite Magniloquent (American Pharoah) in hot pursuit. American Bound stiff-armed that foe in upper stretch despite struggling with her leads, and had built up enough of an advantage to hold off Bode by You (Munnings) by two lengths at the wire, stopping the clock in :52.01–:0.14 faster than the other division of juvenile fillies in race one. Sales history: $20,000 wlg '19 KEENOV; $15,000 ylg '20 OBSWIN. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0. O-Terry Hutto. B-Sandra Sexton & Silver Fern Farm (Ky). T-Joe Sharp.
